Frequently asked questions

What's included in the free 5-day course?

The free 5-day course includes one video lesson per day for 5 days, delivered by email, taking you from your very first note to playing a complete melody with both hands by day 7. You also get the full "Learn Piano in 30 Days" PDF guide (17 pages, 10 chapters) and a printable chord chart poster — both yours to keep, no payment required at any point.

Do I need any equipment to start?

No. The free lessons work with an acoustic piano, a digital keyboard, or even a free piano app on your phone or tablet — there's no minimum equipment requirement to begin, and no card is needed to sign up.

Am I obligated to buy anything after the free course?

No. The free 5-day course and the "Learn Piano in 30 Days" PDF are yours to keep permanently at no cost. Piano Level 1 (the paid, structured 28-lesson course) is offered afterward as an option, not a requirement — plenty of students use the free materials on their own with no further purchase.
